What's your philosophy when it comes to choosing the right Reverb effect for a song or an instrument? Thank you!

I''m a big believer in experimenting. That being said, with experience and trying lots of different verbs, you get to have a sense of what might be a good starting point. That may not be where you end up, but by listening in the track, you get to choose what color sounds best to you. Sometimes you might get fooled by the length of the verb, when you mute the track or stop the music (or listen to the track while being soloed). It may appear long to you, but how it sounds in the track is what counts.
